Soup lunch with SLU’s new honorary doctor – a pioneer in Swedish aquaculture

Join us for a soup lunch in the SLU library and meet SLU’s new honorary doctor, Josef Nygren. Listen as he talks about his journey and his dedication to sustainable aquaculture.

For over 30 years, Josef Nygren has worked to improve the conditions for aquaculture in northern Sweden. He has shown that it is possible to farm high-quality food fish in ice-covered hydropower reservoirs while also creating new jobs in rural areas.

As part of his appointment as one of SLU’s honorary doctors in 2025, he is visiting Umeå. Over lunch, he will share his background and work – and there will be time for questions.

We bid you a warm welcome!
